I am trying to learn how to interface with WolframAlpha. When I try using the Mathematica interface I get nonsensical data. I don't know if this is a bug or if I'm doing it wrong.

My goal is to extract the elevation around the Austrian Province of Upper Austria. Perhaps to assert that Upper Austria is not actually the highest Austrian province, if this doesn't work I will attempt to challenge the status of Lower Austria.

I think its relevent as it is correct when acessed with the Woflram Alpha Interface.

@belisarius epic alignment! +1 if you post that as answer. I wonder where the large angle difference comes from.

@MarkMcClure: Would you say that if at some time a file system bug "leaks" into the Get command, then general file system questions should get on-topic here as well?

@celtschk Certainly, the process of figuring out where a bug that leaks into Mathematica should be fair game here. If the OS happened to be written in Mathematica by the makers of Mathematica, then all the more so.

@YvesKlett The angles come from me not looking at the Google Earth bearing. If you align the North, you get !Mathematica graphics
